Owen Ansah, a sprinter for Hamburger Sportverein (HSV), has lodged an appeal against a doping suspension sought by the national Anti-Doping Agency (NADA). This was confirmed by multiple sources, including Deutschlandfunk and sportschau.de.

Ansah's appeal means that the case will now go before the German Sports Arbitration Court. There is a possibility that the proceedings could go through additional instances as well.

Reports indicate that Ansah has submitted a request for a disciplinary proceeding to the German Sports Court. This is a response to the potential consequences arising from the refusal of a doping test.
